Between the ages of 11 and 15 is the most common time for orthodontic treatment, and for good reasons. By 12, most if not all of the permanent teeth have erupted and are in place, and crooked teeth, gaps and bad bites can easily be detected. Dr. Cavalier has been practicing orthodontics in the Ebensburg area and focuses on providing the best orthodontic treatment for patients of all ages.

Dr. Cavalier graduated from Central Cambria High School.

By 12, most if not all of the permanent teeth have erupted and are in place, and crooked teeth, gaps and bad bites can easily be detected. These problems will hardly ever correct themselves, so this is when most parents decide to seek orthodontic treatment.
Orthodontic treatment at later stages in life can dramatically improve your personal appearance and self-esteem. Improving the health of your teeth and gums is equally important. Crooked teeth and a bad bite can contribute to gum and bone loss, tooth decay, abnormal wear of the tooth enamel and surfaces, headaches and jaw joint (TMJ/TMD) pain.

Doctor Cavalier and all his staff are absolutely wonderful! I was there as a kid myself and I was impressed then. Just had my oldest daughter go through the process of having braces, they did such a wonderful job! And I'm truly amazed of the new tech now vs. when I was a kid. Definitely the best for that on their end! Really looking forward to bringing my other daughter for the same wonderful experience!

My son had braces by another orthodontist. He took a huge growth spurt after his braces were removed and the teeth on the right side of his mouth did not touch. His teeth were also off center. The orthodontist felt the only solution was jaw surgery. I went to Dr. Cavalier for a second opinion. He felt jaw surgery would definitely correct the problem. However, I was not on board. He suggested Invisalign as an option but was not sure of the results. I agreed to try and would not hold him responsible. Dr. Cavalier talked with Invisalign and I feel he took my son on as a personal project. The results

We started here with the first of our 5 children who NEEDED braces. It became quickly clear after her braces came off that the rest of them would get braces whether they need it or not. Our oldest thought his teeth were fine until he saw the results from his sister’s braces and now has a gorgeous smile as well. We’re on child #3 of 5 now and can’t wait to see his results. Not only is Doctor Cavalier a perfectionist, but his staff are wonderful at encouraging compliance which made this job much easier on me! Thank you so much Cavalier Orthodontics and staff for giving our children beautiful

My seven year old was referred to an orthodontist by our dentist! I was told by my friends and family to choose dr cavalier and his staff! I am not disappointed! Such a wonderful orthodontist and team! They always go to the extreme to make my daughter and I comfortable. They make sure I am informed every step of the way!

Our son and daughter both were patients of Dr. Cavalier. Working with Dr. Cavalier was a pleasant experience for our children, their teeth look amazing and they get lots of compliments on their smiles. Dr. Cavalier takes the time to thoroughly explain every step of the dreaded "braces" and he answered every question the kids (or we) had along the way. The office is inviting and the staff are friendly and welcoming. If you are looking for a fabulous orthodontist and want great results, trust Dr. Joe Cavalier! The smiles he creates, speak volumes of his knowledge in the field of orthodontics.

My husband, son and daughter were all patients of Dr. Cavalier and I couldn't be happier with their smiles! The treatments were affordable, and everyone at the office was very friendly and easy to work with. The office staff were excellent with scheduling issues and went out of their way to accommodate us, even after we moved out of state in the middle of my daughter's treatment. Highest recommendation for Dr. Cavalier and his staff.

We are very pleased with the treatment our son received from Dr. Cavalier and his staff. They were very friendly and anytime we had a question or had any issues they took care of it right away. One time in particular he had an issue on Christmas eve with a wire coming loose. I called Dr. Cavalier and he helped talk us through what to do until we could get to the office. We can't thank Dr. Cavalier enough for giving our son such a nice smile. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an Orthodontist.
